Reports received from clergymen ''throughout Philadelphia to whom ro- 1- quests had been made for reports on the effects of the "uiuy " sununy campniKn, which have been mentioned In tho Sat urday Issues of tho EvnsiNO LecaEn slnco Mr. Sunday left, Indicate thnt 80 per cent- of tho citys Protestant cnurcnes were benefited through Increased mem- f bershlps. f AVhllo dcllnlto figures could not bo ob ' x talncd from the clergymen regarding the .exact number of persona led to unlto a ' with tho churches through tho campaign, f as most of the pastors of churches re ' ported that additional members were be- I Ins received or being prepared for recep- ' tlon weekly, there wero a sufficient num ? bcr of exact figures obtained from the - churches reporting to Bhow that the H?A churches that co-operated with tho cam flpalgn received an nvcrago of 125 new r j members through It. ; Thero were, of course, exceptions. For . ' Instance, St. TauPs Jteformed Episcopal V" Church received more than GO) now mem- ' bers on ono Sunday, and while n largo "''I majority of these worn not "trall-hlt- -tcrs," credit Is given for the personal s ! work dono by tho tabernacle converts C- J and the Increased evangelical enthusiasm ' among the members for bringing so many ' i to acccptanco of Jesus Christ ns tholr i Saviour. Then, again, there wero some . I churches that did not recelvo more than I a scoro of new members and others that received half a hundred and moro I slnco Mr. Sunday left, but say that their I services have hern better attended since ' the campaign began and that they nntlcl- ' pate further lesults In tho future. , Of all tho reports received coming from ministers, only seven showed no gain, or virtually none, and only two or thrco made any statements that were Intended to reflect discredit on tho cam- , palgn. Thero were 10 per cent, of tho pastors only who mado no report of unusual gains and excellent prospects for the future. , Only one of tho pastors of churches that wero listed as co-oporatlng churches reported no gains and no Indications of gains In tho futuro or benefits therefrom. Tho negative reports, with this one cx rentlnn. camo from ministers whOBO churches "wero not Interested In tho cam paign, took no nctlvo part In It and did not expoct any results." Although tho tabernacle converts num ber between 41,000 and 41.000 persons (dif ferent counts dlsagreolng), the reports In dicate that the Increases to the churches since Mr. Sunday camo hero amount to about 100,000 men and women. Boys nnd girls who took their stand havo In few cases been received Into tho churches, .but mopt of them nro being prepared for admission. Many ministers prophesy that their churches will receive three new members for every ono that "hit tho trail" nnd becamo communicants with their flocks, nnd tho Increase In members In tho city varies from 100 to 300 abovo normal.

Ho caged himself In a perfectly gor geous new mask this morning, tied him self In a chest protector, grabbed a little white Indicator and did his best to "ump" threo Innings of a game at Totowa Oval between the Newtown and Paterson high schools, He even furnished new base balls. His generosity was forgotten the minute ho shouted "Pla-n-ay b-a-MI" "Owan," yelled somebody in the bleach ers, which were crowded, not bo much to Bee the game as to see "Billy" umplie, "Owan, you've forgot the batteries." "I'll be switched, so I hava clean for got 'em. Ladles and gentlemen, my preaching for tonight I mean, batteries for today's game! For Newtown Say, Rodey, what are tho batteries?" Then there was a laugh. Finally "Billy" got himself straightened out and went to it in regulation fashion. He dodged Ave foul tips In rapid succession and then got Into an argument with a frizzle-headed youngster, who lined a hot one out along the right-field line. It looked safe, Tho frlzzle-headed youngster beat it for first, rounded the sack and sprinted for second. He opened up like a pair of shears and slid into the cushion In a cloud of dust. "Foul ball," yelled "Billy." "Ouch; wow-e-e. Robber! Where'd you get your lamps T" "Give us a square deal. We can't play a 10-man team," Tha next man up jumped out at tho evangelist. He had a bat In his hand. For Just about two seconds it looked as though the world would lose Us most Important baseball evangelist. "Billy" blinked. "Foul ball, I said' he chirruped. Be fore that ultimatum, put across In his best platform voice, and the fiery snap In his little eyes, and the fighting poise1 of him (he had his mask in his hand an.1 was swinging It rather vlclously)-before all this, the charging cohorts srumbllngly fell back.

Mr. reely has had great success with the church, which he founded several years ago. with "her toe at 11:15" dancing for Herod, there's no tolling. It looked like rain. Tho gamo wns hardly under way. But "Billy's" thoughts wandered to evangelism. Ho made two horrlblo decisions on balls and strikes and was "Joshed" more than on any day in his career. Tho decisions were so bad that "Billy" knew It himself. So he doffed his pro tector, his mask nnd his Indicator und salJ: "Go to It, boys; I'm through," nnd wns cheered out of tho gates, everybody agreeing that, even though ho wasn't any great shakes as nn umpire well, ho was a very good sport, anyway, nnd they hoped ho'd como again when It wasn't going to rnln or ho didn't have to um plro or something. Down at Totowa Oval tomorrow there's to be n Sunday gamo between the New York Americans nnd the Paterson At lantic Leaguo team. "Billy" will not be thero. When ho was asked If ho would please attend, he said: "Not on your life. I'm against Sunday baseball from hell to breakfast and back for luncheon. No good thlngB In It. It's tho devil's Invention. I never played Sun day bait In my life." But when he was told that somo day In tho very near futura a girl's team of professionals from New York would Play a men's professional aggregation here he thought ho might be on hand for that) Btruggle. "I've never seen a girls' team In action," he said. "But take it from me, girls can't play ball. They weren't mado that way. The way a woman throws Is a disgrace."

CIVIL WAR VETERANS ENTHUSIASTIC OVER 4TH Volunteer Zealous Aid in Mak ing National Celebration a Memorable Event. Venerable heroes of tho Civil War will roll up their sleeves and work for tho success of the national celebration here on tho Fourth of July, which also commem orates the COtli anniversary of tho closing of tho Civil War. Every O. A. R. Post In tho city will co-operato to mako the event ono which will long bo remembered. As a vast majority of the old soldiers are past tho threo scoro and ten, they will not participate In the parade which precede tho ceremonies at Independence Hall, but will assemble at various points In con nection with tho celebration and act as hosts to those who visit tho city. Samuel P. Town, Assistant Adjutant General of the Department of Pennsylva nia, of tho G. A. R., said today that th proposed event is especially timely, as It serves to show a united and peaceful America while the European countries are In tho midst of strife. "The occasion will remind the people of the country's earlier struggles," he said, "and serve to make many appreciate more than ever that they are Amer icana." Judging from t'no Interest which has been aroused In the event, It Is highly probable that old soldiers from numerous States will Journey hero to lend their cheers In the anniversary of the great struggle. Kfforts will be made to bring Commander-in-chief David J. Palmer, of the G. A. R., and other high officials of the Grand Army here. In keeping wlt'n the spirit of the oc casion, many noted Confederate soldiers will also be Invited. It Is expected that the bill Introduced In Councils for an appropriation of 16000 for the dual celebration will be passed next week, and Immediately after Its pas sage a conference ot Councils' Fourtn of July Committee will be called by Its chairman, Common Councilman John Balzley, The committee will arrange the Fourth of July program so that the festivities will conclude on the day that the lib erty Bell departs for Its trip to the Pan-ama-Pacltto Exposition. Many of the Councllmen have suggested that the bell bo made ready for the start before the celebration begins, aa it would, therefore, be on view of the people during tho cere monies at Independence Hall, McMonigle Association Receives The McMonigle Association gave a re ception and smoker at its club house, 2S3S Richmond street.
